Wooden coat hangers cannot be beaten on looks.
Although we stock a wide range of hangers made from all kinds of materials – plastic, metal, even recycled paper fibres – when it comes to making your wardrobe look as smart as possible it just has to be wood.
In addition to their superior aesthetics, the high-quality wooden hangers that we offer will last you longer than most plastic equivalents. They are built to last.
They are also more sustainable, and we even have a growing range of FSC®-certified wooden hangers, for those looking to minimise their environmental impact.
Also, there is a wider variety of wooden hangers available than you might realise. Efficient clothes storage requires versatility, and there is sure to be a wooden hanger to suit your need.
Whether you are looking to hang shirts, trousers, dresses, smart jackets, large coats, suits, skirts or ties, we have a wooden hanger to do the job. Our list of the Best Wooden Coat Hangers 2025 is here to help you find the best hanger for your requirements.
At first, all clothes hangers can look the same. Hopefully, this list will help simplify your search. Although we stock a huge range beyond this Top 10, the hangers in this list should cover all bases – whatever clothes you need to hang and whatever look you are going for.
1. Slimline Wooden Suit Hanger
Our newest style of wooden hanger is a non-controversial choice for Number 1 Best Wooden Hanger 2025.
These brilliant hangers combine the incredible space-saving qualities of our Slimline Velvet Hangers range with the unbeatable looks, durability and sustainability of wooden hangers.
At just 7mm thick, the slim profile of these hangers allows you to fit more on the rail. Perfect when space is at a premium.
They are also made from fast-growing, FSC®-certified rubber wood. This means they are one of the more sustainable choices of hanger available.
And to top it all off, they look brilliant! Slim, smart, and with beautifully cut straight lines – everything that is good about wooden hangers is right here.
In a recent article for the Metro, our Slimline Wooden Hangers were even described as something that would ‘change your life’!
We stock a range of Slimline Wooden Hangers, including a children’s version. But we’ve gone for this suit hanger as our Number 1 choice due to it’s versatility. With it’s trouser bar and arm notches, it is suitable for most types of clothing.
2. Economy Flat Wooden Suit Hanger
We stock so many wooden coat hangers, many of which look a lot like this one!
The reason this one is so high on our list of Best Wooden Coat Hangers is due to its value and versatility.
Despite being made from a slightly lower-cost wood to our premium Angled Wooden Suit Hanger, it is still a well-made and high-quality clothes hanger. You may notice a few more knots in the wood, but these do not affect the functionality of the hanger and we think they add some character. The result is a great quality hanger, which will look fantastic in your wardrobe, at an outstanding price.
These hangers are truly multipurpose. Suitable for holding shirts, jackets, blouses, coats, jumpers etc. The hanger also has a trouser bar, making it ideal for hanging suits.
The arms also have notches, allowing storage of items with loops and straps, such as dresses. An added advantage is that the hangers are flat, unlike some of our more expensive hangers, which are often angled. This means they take up less space on your clothes rail for more efficient clothes storage. For this reason, they also appear on our list of Top 10 Wardrobe Space Saving Ideas 2021.
3. Wooden Trouser & Skirt Clip Hangers
As already mentioned, the main advantages of wooden hangers are superior quality and great looks. If these two criteria are your main requirements, then wooden clip hangers are an essential purchase.
It is fair to say that there are more space-efficient, multipurpose hangers out there – such as the wooden suit hangers already listed (which can hold both tops and bottoms at the same time). However, wooden clip hangers look extremely stylish in any wardrobe. They also hold garments firmly in place – there is no danger of your trousers or skirts sliding off the hanger.
They also have an advantage in that they are made from just one solid piece of wood, unlike most wooden hangers. This lack of joints means less potential weak points, and therefore a longer lifespan.
Our wooden clip hangers come in black, white, walnut/dark, and natural wood. They feature strong clips with rubber ends to protect your garments from damage, and the hook rotates 360 degrees to make accessing your clothes even easier. They are made from high quality sustainable lotus wood, and durable anti-rust chrome plated metal.
Suitable for holding garments such as trousers and skirts, they are also able to hang other items, including towels, sheets, scarves and blankets. The movable clips mean they can hold many different sizes.
We also offer a more sustainable FSC®-certified version in natural, made from eucalyptus wood.
4. Slimline Wooden Drop-Bar Suit Hanger
Another one from our new Slimline Wooden Hanger range.
This is similar to the Slimline Wooden Suit Hanger, which tops our list. However, this hanger has a stylish drop bar, giving it a more premium look.
As with the standard slimline suit hanger, this is a highly versatile do-everything option.
It will instantly improve the look of your wardrobe, whilst saving an incredible amount of space.
5. Broad-Ended Suit Hanger
The best wooden hanger for storing your quality jackets and suits.
These stylish looking wooden coat hangers have broad, bulbous ends and an angled shape. This helps to preserve the natural shape of your clothes whilst hanging.
The trouser bar, with non-slip rubber grip, makes this a perfect coat hanger for suits and other two-piece outfits. High-quality and built to last, these premium wooden hangers bring an element of class to any wardrobe. Also, thanks to their solid design and thicker build, they are well-suited to hanging heavier items such as coats.
6. Wooden Children’s Hanger
For a smart looking and well organised kids’ wardrobe, these are the best children’s coat hangers to start with.
Complete with a trouser bar and notches on the arms, they are suitable for hanging most baby and children’s clothing. They are perfect for storing shirts, jumpers, coats, trousers, dresses and baby grows, from new-born baby right through to toddler size.
Although we do stock other high-quality baby hangers, including our Wooden Children’s Clip Hanger, these are the most versatile and space-efficient. They also come in a choice of colours – white, black or natural – so there is something to suit all wardrobes.
For those who like wooden hangers but are limited by space, we also stock a Slimline Wooden Children’s Hanger, and a sustainable FSC®-certified version of the natural wooden children’s hanger.
7. Wooden Suit Hanger with Metal Clips
This is another versatile wooden coat hanger, suitable for hanging shirts, jackets, trousers, skirts, dresses, and coats. It is an excellent option for hanging suits. The clips make it suitable for storing either trousers or skirts, and the angled design helps maintain the natural shape of your best quality jackets.
8. Wooden Tie Hanger
Keeping your ties organised seems like such a simple idea, but it can make a huge difference and save valuable drawer space.
It is so easy for ties to get lost or creased when they get stashed away in a drawer.
We stock a range of accessory hangers, with this tie hanger arguably the best for its great value and simplicity.
With its attractive wooden design and anti-rust chrome plated metal hooks, it can store up to 20 ties. It also features in our Top 10 Wardrobe Space Saving Ideas 2021 list.
9. ‘Scandi Chic’ Laminated Wooden Suit Hanger
Similar to our other wooden suit hangers with trouser bars in what they can do – but with an eye-catching difference in how them look.
With their simple, modern, Scandinavian-inspired design, these laminated wooden coat hangers look incredibly stylish. For certain wardrobe and bedroom looks, this might be exactly the kind of hanger style you are searching for.
They are an excellent multipurpose wooden hanger, with a rubber-coated non-slip trouser bar and arm notches. They are suitable for a wide range of clothing, including shirts, jumpers, trousers, coats, jackets, dresses, T-shirts and blouses.
Also, due to their flat design, they allow you to fit more hangers on one clothes rail, making the best use of space. For this reason, they also feature in our Top 10 Wardrobe Space Saving Ideas 2021 list.
10. Whitewash Beechwood Jacket Hanger
A premium wooden hanger, perfect for your best items of clothing.
Made from the highest quality European beechwood, this thick and solid hanger is built to last and able to handle heavier items.
At 39cm it is most suitable for ladies clothing and smaller garments. With its beautiful whitewash appearance, it is ideally suited to quality items and special occasion wear. It is a popular choice for wedding dresses, suit jackets, and designer coats.
